Service Precaution
WARNING: THIS VEHICLE HAS A SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS). REFER TO THE SRS
COMPONENT AND WIRING LOCATION VIEW IN
ORDER TO DETERMINE WHETHER YOU ARE
PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR NEAR THE SRS
COMPONENTS OR THE SRS WIRING. WHEN YOU
ARE PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR NEAR THE SRS
COMPONENTS OR THE SRS WIRING, REFER TO
THE SRS SERVICE INFORMATION. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN POSSIBLE
AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL INJURY, OR
OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS SYSTEM REPAIRS.
CAUTION: Always use the correct fastener in the
proper location. When you replace a fastener, use
ONLY the exact part number for that application.
ISUZU will call out those fasteners that require a
replacement after removal. ISUZU will also call out
the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread
sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not
use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or other
corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or
fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings
adversely affect the fastener torque and the joint
clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When
you install fasteners, use the correct tightening
sequence and specifications. Following these
instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and
systems.
General Description
Pulling up the parking brake lever by hand will set the
parking brake. By means of a ratchet type lock, the lever
can be held in that position until it is released. The position
of the lever is transmitted through cable/lever systems to
the rear wheels. These parts are designed to obtain
sufficient braking force even when parking on slopes.
When the parking brake is set, or when the ignition SW is
in theªONº position, the brake warning light illuminates.
The rear wheel parking brake is a leading/trailing brake
(mechanical inside expansion type). Parking brake
adjustment is made through the adjusting hole (bored
through back plate). Parking brake lever stroke should be
adjusted to 6 notches. Refer to
Parking Brake Adjustment
in this section.

Parking Brake Adjustment
NOTE: All brakes are self adjusting. Brakes are adjusted
by repeated stepping on the brake pedal. (After stepping
on the pedal and releasing it, the rear auto±adjuster, in the
rear brake, produces a clicking sound. The same
operation should be repeated until the sound
disappears.)
Take the following steps after overhauling the rear brake
assembly.
1. Move the parking brake lever to its fully released
position.
2. Parking cable must be loosened sufficiently. (Loosen
the adjust nut and the lock nut.).
3. Repeat stepping on the brake pedal firmly, and
releasing it until the clicking sound can no longer be
heard.
If the difference between the brake drum inside
diameter and diameter of the brake shoes is adjusted
to be 0.5 mm, the number of times for depressing the
brake pedal can be reduced.
4. Remove the drum. Measure the brake drum inside
diameter and diameter of the brake shoes.
Shoe clearance: 0.25 mm to 0.40 mm
(0.0098 in to 0.0157 in)
If incorrect, check the brake auto±adjusting system.
5. Rotate the adjust nut of hand brake lever until all slack
disappears from the cable. Set the adjust nut.
6. Applying about 30 kg (66 lb) of force, pull the parking
brake lever to its fully set position three or four times.
7. If the parking brake is properly adjusted, the travel
between the fully disengaged position and the fully
engaged position will be 6 notches.
If the traveling range is not within these limits, repeat
steps 1 through 5 again .
After adjusting has been done, check to see if the rear
wheel rotates smoothly without drag when turned by
hand.

ENGINE MECHANICAL (6VE1 3.5L)
General Description
Engine Cleanliness And Care
An automobile engine is a combination of many
machined, honed, polished and lapped surfaces with
tolerances that are measured in the thousandths of a
millimeter (ten thousandths of an inch). Accordingly,
when any internal engine parts are serviced, care and
cleanliness are important. Throughout this section, it
should be understood that proper cleaning and protection
of machined surfaces and friction areas is part of the
repair procedure. This is considered standard shop
practice even if not specifically stated.

A liberal coating of engine oil should be applied to all
friction areas during assembly to protect and lubricate
the surfaces on initial operation.

Whenever valve train components, pistons, piston
rings, connecting rods, rod bearings, and crankshaft
journal bearings are removed for service, they should
be retained in order.

At the time of installation, they should be installed in
the same locations and with the same mating
surfaces as when removed.

Battery cables should be disconnected before any
major work is performed on the engine. Failure to
disconnect cables may result in damage to wire
harness or other electrical parts.

The six cylinders of this engine are identified by
numbers; Right side cylinders 1, 3 and 5, Left side
cylinders 2, 4 and 6, as counted from crankshaft
pulley side to flywheel side.
General Information on Engine Service
The following information on engine service should be
noted carefully, as it is important in preventing damage
and contributing to reliable engine performance.

When raising or supporting the engine for any reason,
do not use a jack under the oil pan. Due to the small
clearance between the oil pan and the oil pump
strainer, jacking against the oil pan may cause
damage to the oil pick±up unit.

The 12±volt electrical system is capable of damaging
circuits. When performing any work where electrical
terminals could possibly be grounded, the ground
cable of the battery should be disconnected at the
battery.

Any time the intake air duct or air cleaner is removed,
the intake opening should be covered. This will
protect against accidental entrance of foreign
material into the cylinder which could cause extensive
damage when the engine is started.
Cylinder Block
The cylinder block is made of aluminum die±cast casting
for 75
V±type six cylinders. It has a rear plate integrated
structure and employs a deep skirt. The cylinder liner is
cast and the liner inner diameter and crankshaft journal
diameter are classified into grades. The crankshaft is
supported by four bearings of which width is different
between No.2, No.3 and No.1, No.4; the width of No.3
bearing on the body side is different in order to support the
thrust bearing. The bearing cap is made of nodular cast
iron and each bearing cap uses four bolts and two side
bolts.
Cylinder Head
The cylinder head, made of aluminum alloy casting
employs a pent±roof type combustion chamber with a
spark plug in the center. The intake and exhaust valves
are placed in V±type design. The ports are cross±flow
type.
Valve Train
Intake and exhaust camshaft on both banks are driven
with a camshaft drive gear by the timing belt. The valves
are operated by the camshaft and the valve clearance is
adjusted to select suitable thickness shim.
Intake Manifold
The intake manifold system is composed of the aluminum
cast common chamber and intake manifold attached with
six fuel injectors.
Exhaust Manifold
The exhaust manifold is made of nodular cast iron.
Pistons and Connecting Rods
Aluminum pistons are used after selecting the grade that
meets the cylinder bore diameter. Each piston has two
compression rings and one oil ring. The piston pin made
of chromium steel is offset 1mm toward the thrust side,
and the thrust pressure of piston to the cylinder wall varies
gradually as the piston travels. The connecting rods are
made of forged steel. The connecting rod bearings are
graded for correct size selection.
Crankshaft and Bearings
The crankshaft is made of Ductile cast±iron. Pins and
journals are graded for correct size selection for their
bearing.
